I was surprised to see so many varied artists on starparade. Most recently on german tv's 'best disco in town' compilation. Loads of clips which i've never seen before from artists like 5000 volts, eruption, silver convention, donna summer. This is an untapped resource and hopefully we may get to see more.

Starparade footage is frequently shown on German TV & has featured many international artists such as Abba, The Beach Boys, Three Degrees, etc, etc. Filmed in Munchen I believe ;D www.youtube.com/watch?v=CshvFyc01zg |

Starparade was a german TV-Show that was shown on germany's second TV-programme ZDF for twelve consecutive years between 1968 and 1980, it's first broadcast was on March, 14th, 1968, a Saturday from the Siegerlandhalle in Siegen, Germany, still in black & white.
Later, the programme spot switched from Saturday to Thursday night where it stayed until the show's end on the 5th of June 1980. The show was broadcast annually in six episodes and the regular orchestra on the show was the"James Last Orchestra" who had it's first ever tv appearance on this show.
James Last always played live with one exception: when he once had to stay in hospital care, he pre-recorded all the tracks for the show on tape and the band mimed on screen to the conduction of his brother Kai Warner, himself a well known german bandleader. The guests however, mainly mimed to prerecorded tracks, among them a wide range and variety from Hollywood Filmstars to german schlager and of course international guests like ABBA, Neil Diamond, The Beach Boys (12/12/1968 - "Bluebirds Over The Mountain") or Johnny Cash.
The show was hosted by Rainer Holbe.

I believe starparade is being repeated on one of the german channels each monday ,they started a few weeks ago with the complete episodes from 1971,at the moment we are up to october 1972 ,so as ive never been able to find a proper detailed list of performers etc from each episode anywhere at all on the internet ,these repeats will finally help fill in most of the episode guest list gaps ,i just hope they carry on showing the rest of the series up until it ended in 1980.
